MLB playoff schedule is crazy...

[fishwater99]

The Twins have to play today in NYC after playing last night at home, while the Sox and Angels get the night off...
Makes no sense to me.........

.....from winning your spot outright as opposed to tieing for it.

No one knew the Twins would have to play the tiebreaker game (and in fact didn't know if it would be the Twins or Tigers).

Also add that the game would've been played Monday night, but there was some football game being played that day at the Metrodome.

To decide Wednesday or Thursday....and they wisely went with Wednesday.

By rule, the baseball playoff game is supposed to be Monday

However, the Twins got screwed because there was a football game in their home stadium that night (can't remember who was playing)

So this was a very unique situation
